Bernie Sanders didn't want to hear about Hillary Clinton's 'damn emails,' so he certainly doesn't want to hear about Bill Clinton's sex life.

Sanders was asked during both of his Sunday show appearances today whether Donald Trump bringing up Bill Clinton's sexual indiscretions of the past was fair game.

'No,' Sanders stated to CNN's Dana Bash. 'I think we have got more important things to worry about in this country than Bill Clinton's sex life.'

Bernie Sanders appeared this morning on CNN and, again, defended the Clintons from a controversy bubbling up, this time saying that he didn't want to hear about Bill Clinton's past sexcapades

CNN's Dana Bash laughed when Bernie Sanders blasted Donald Trump for talking about Bill Clinton's sex life and then segued onto the topic of global warming

As Hillary Clinton has stepped up her criticism of Donald Trump, the billionaire businessman has hit back by trying to remind voters of the '90s.

'If Hillary thinks she can unleash her husband, with his terrible record of women abuse, while playing the women's card on me, she's wrong!' Trump tweeted last week, later bringing up the names Monica Lewinsky and Paula Jones.

Sanders wasn't interested in labeling Bill Clinton as a sex pest, even though it might be a politically advantageous move, as the Vermont senator hopes to overtake Hillary Clinton in Iowa, the state that holds the first caucus.

'I think that Donald Trump might want to concern himself with the fact that he's dead wrong when he says we should not raise the minimum wage, he's dead wrong when he says that wages in America are too high,' Sanders began.

'He's dead wrong when he thinks we should give huge tax breaks to billionaires like himself, and he's dead wrong when he thinks that climate change is a hoax, when the entire – virtually the entire scientific community thinks it's the great environmental crisis that we face,' Sanders continued.

'Maybe Trump should worry about those issues, rather than Bill Clinton's sex life,' the Vermont senator concluded.

Heading over to ABC's This Week to talk to Martha Raddatz, Sanders encountered the same line of questioning.

Bernie Sanders faced a similar line of questioning when talking to Martha Raddatz on ABC's This Week, telling the TV host that, no, he didn't believe Bill Clinton's sexual past was fair game

'No, I don't,' Sanders replied when Raddatz asked if Bill Clinton's sexual history was fair game.

'I think, you know, we have enormous problems facing this country and I think we got more things to worry about than Bill Clinton's sexual life,' Sanders said. 'I think – interestingly enough, maybe Donald Trump might want to focus attention on climate change, understand that climate change is not a hoax, as he believes it is.'

Going down the same rhetorical road, Sanders again mentioned The Donald's stance on the minimum wage and tax breaks for the wealthy.

Raddatz noted that Sanders, who pledged to run a clean campaign, had said some pretty harsh things about the Republican frontrunner, including calling Trump a pathological liar.

Sanders said it was justified.

'Yes. The truth is I do not get engaged in personal attacks, but Trump really is over the edge,' Sanders said.

Sanders pointed to the claims Trump made about thousands of New Jersey Muslims celebrating the fall of the Twin Towers on 9/11 – something that couldn't be corroborated with news reports from 2001.

'Time after time, this guys just comes up with things off the top of his head that are lies,' Sanders said. 'And somebody has got to say that he is a pathological liar.'
